In Nov. 6 Hood River County Elections results, Mark Johnson and Greg Walden trailed in voting in their own communities but won reelection in their districts in voting Nov. 6.

Cascade Locks will see two new faces on Council, and a new mayor in Tom Cramblett, who defeated incumbent Lance Masters by a wide margin.

Cramblett is a City Council member, meaning the council must now appoint someone to his position.

Kate McBride received the most votes in Hood River Council voting, Mark Zanmiller was a close second, and fellow incumbent Laurent Picard has a slim four-point lead over Nikki Hollatz. The vote was for the top three of four candidates.

County Board of Commissioners Ron Rivers, Maui Meyer and Les Perkins were all re-elected in unopposed races.

In other unopposed races:

Hood River Mayor – Arthur Babitz

Circuit Court, Dist. 7 Position 21 — John A. Olson
